⟩ The average age of 10 members of a committee is the same as it was 4 years ago, because an old member has been replaced by a young member. Find how much younger is the new member?

let the members be a1,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i,j .Let a2 be the younger member who replaces a1.

we have,

a1+b+c+......+j=a2+b+4+c+4+d+4+.....+j+4

=> a1+b+c+....+j=a2+b+c+..+j+36

hence,the oldest member is 36 years older than the new member
